A Different ViewAt age 14, 15 and 16, the way we looked was the most important thing in the world to us. My friends and I wanted nothing less than perfection.In high school, we joined the gymnastics team, and our 36 became even more important to us. We had no fat, only muscle. On the weekends, we would go to the beach, 37 of our flat stomachs.One summer day, all my friends were at my house 38 . At one point, I was running back to the pool. I 39 on a bee, and while it was dying under my foot, it stung(蛰) me. I instantly started to feel40 . That night, I began to run a high fever and my leg an d foot were red, hot and swollen. I couldn’t walk.I could barely 41 .When my foot started to go numb, everyone became more 42 . My foot was not getting enough blood. I had to go to the 43 , and my leg hurt as if it were badly broken. I couldn’t move. All I could do was think about how soft my middle was becoming. That 44 me more than any concern over my leg.That would all 45 when I heard the doctors mention possibly cutting off my foot. It was still not getting the 46 supply it needed. The doctors would have to speed up their treatment.Never before did I have such great 47 for my foot. And walking seemed like a 48 from the gods. Less and less would I want to hear my friends talk about 49 and who was wearing what. More and more I expected visits from other kids in the hospital, who were quickly becoming my friends.One girl came to visit me 50 . Every time she came, she brought flowers. She was recovering from cancer and felt she should come back and 51 the other patients.She still had no hair, and she was swollen from medications she had been taking. I would not have given this girl a second 52 before. I now loved every inch of her and looked forward to her 53 .Finally, I was improving and soon I went home. My leg was still swollen, 54 I was walking, andI had my foot! When I would go back to the hospital, I often saw my friend. She was still visiting people and 55 good cheer. I thought if even there was an angel on this earth, it had to be her.36. A. grades B. brains C. bodies D. clothes37. A. ashamed B. proud C. sure D. tired38.

This section of the Employee Handbook will tell you how to organize videos.Each Main street Movies store has three main sections:1.New Releases Wall.2.Film library.3.Video Games.New Releases Wall. Almost 70 percent of movie rentals are new releases, and that is the first place where most customers go when they enter the store. The center section of shelves on this wall holds Hottest Hits. When new titles come into the store, place them on this wall in alphabetical order. The shelves beside Hottest Hits are called Recent Releases. The New Releases Wall, including the Hottest Hits and Recent Releases shelves, holds about 350 titles.Film Library. The thousands of titles in the Film Library are organized into categories. The films within each category are displayed alphabetically. Here are the categories and their two-letter computer codes:*Foreign Language titles include films that were originally made in a foreign language and films with foreign language subtitles. A sticker on the back of each box tells which type of film it is.Video Game. All the video games in Main street Movies are arranged in alphabetical order. Although video games represent only a small percentage of our inventory(库存), they are stolen more often than any other type of goods in our store. Therefore, video games are never displayed on the shelves. Shelves in the Video Game section hold cardboard with pictures and information about each game. When a customer wants to rent a particular game, you then find the game from the locked case behind the counter.56. Whom do you think this passage is most probably addressed to?A．The readers in the store.B．The manager of the store.C．The customers in the store.D．The salespersons of the store.57. In which order are the new movies moved in the store?A．From Hottest Hits to Film Library to Recent Releases.B．From Film Library to Hottest Hits to Recent Releases.C．From Recent Releases to Film Library to Hottest Hits.D．From Hottest Hits to Recent Releases to Film Library.58. Why can’t video games be seen on the shelves?A．Because they’ve been sold out.B．Because they’re in the storehouse.C．Because they’re in a locked case behind the counter.D．Because they represent a small percentage of the inventory.59. How can a customer find a film with foreign language subtitles?A. Check the computer.B. Look at the back of the box.C. Check the center section.D. Watch a few minutes of the film.BHearing VoicesWould you like to be an actor, but aren’t the right age or physical type for the part? Don’t give up: there may be a place for you in the world of voice-acting.Twenty-year-old Rickey Collins brings Tucker Foley to like in the cartoon Danny Phantom. In addition to many appearances on television and in movies, Rickey is a voice-over actor, someone we hear but don’t see. Rickey has acted since he was 6, both on and off camera. After school, his grandmother-a manager and acting coach-helped his develop his skills by doing voice exercises and reading aloud.V oice-over actors do many kinds of acting. They are the voices of cartoon characters on television, in movies and video games, and for communicating toys. In films, they replace the foreign language conversation with English version. They create crowd noises, make commercials, act in radio plays, and record telephone instructions and public announcements. They read books on tape and even record museum tours.Like other actors, voice-over actors need to understand scripts, interpret characters, and breathe correctly. They have to master voice techniques, such as pacing, volume, and range. Sometimes they use their normal voices; other times they change their voices to create different characters or noises. Rickey receives his Danny Phantom scripts only a few days before he tapes each episode(集). He rites helpful notes on the script to guide himself on speaking his part.Rickey practices, then tapes at the recording studio. He and the other cast members sit in a soundproof booth, acting out their characters as they read their lines into the microphones. “The cartoon gets createdafter we record the words, so we have to imagine everything in our mind,” days Rickey. Later, the recorded words, music, and sound effects are combined with the cartoon art to create the cartoon we enjoy on TV. Sound interesting? Maybe you can have a “voice” in acting after all!60. The sentence underlined in paragraph 2 means _______.A. Rickey draws the characterB. Rickey names Tucker FoleyC. Rickey makes the character seem realD. Rickey decides the future of Tucker Foley61. From the passage we can infer that _______.A. it’s very complex to become a cartoon film voice-over actorB. Rickey has been involved with acting most of his lifeC. Rickey was an actor when he was sixD. many people have nice voices62. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that _______.A. a voice-over actor works very hardB. being a voice-over actor needs talentsC. being a voice-over actor requires skillsD. a voice-over actor has many techniques63. The information in this article would be most valuable to people _______.A. who want to build a career around their voicesB. who need to develop their stage-acting skillsC. who want to understand scriptwritingD. who need to practice voice exercisesCBasketball, Past and PresentIn 1891, a teacher invented a new exercise in Springfield, Massachusetts. A particularly cold winter meant that Dr. James Naismith’s students couldn’t exercise outdoors, and he needed to find a way that would both entertain them and make sure they got enough exercise. He nailed a peach basket up at one end of the gym and began to develop the rules of what is now one of the most popular sports in the world: basketball.As colleges began to adopt the game at the turn of the 20th century, basketball undertook a number of rapid changes. Five-person teams became the norm around 1898. Metal hoops replaced peach baskets in 1906. Though it was short lived, the first basketball league was formed in 1898. Under the direction of President Roosevelt, in the 1930s college sports were reorganized to change the rules, largely to prevent injury to players. This organization became the National Collegiate Athletic Association, or NCCA. The first professional league, later to become the National Basketball Association, or NBA, was put together in 1948.The game as we know it is still standardized very carefully. In the NBA and the NCAA, games are played for four quarters of 12 minutes each. A regulation court is 94 feet by 50 feet, though international basketball leagues sometimes use a somewhat smaller court. It has been suggested that because the athleticism of professional players has increased so much since 1891 the sport might be best served by increasing court size, though this change seems unlikely given the large amount of money that would be required to improve courts.Outside of the professional and collegiate leagues, there seems to be no end to the introduction of new varieties of basketball from very corner of the world: water basketball, wheelchair basketball, even a new form called slamball(极限篮球). One might even say that Dr. James Naismith’s creative achievement to sport exists in each one. And the basketball is significant for another reason: women have been playing almost since its inception: the first game of women’s basketball was played in 1891, the same year the sport was invented.64. What purpose does the first paragraph serve?A. To provide the origin of basketball.B. To stress the importance of basketball.C. To offer basic knowledge of basketball.D. To catch the reader’s attention by telling a story.65. Which of the following statements reflects the basketball in ventor’s spirit?A. Basketball is now making a large profit.B. Many new, creative varieties of basketball exits.C. Americans are still very successful at basketball.D. Basketball has become an international sport now.66. The underlined word “inception” probably means _______.A. golden ageB. beginningC. boomingD. fading periodDThe past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists(⼈类学家). Descriptions like “Paleolithic(旧⽯器时代)Man”，“Neolithic(新⽯器时代)Man”, e tc, neatly sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twenty-first century, they will surely choose the label “Legless Man”. Histories of the time will go something like this:“In the twenty-first century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. And the surprising thing is that they didn’t use their legs even when the y went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of very huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were ruined by the presence of large car parks.”The future history books might also record that we lost the right of using our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train, the unclear picture of the countryside constantly slides over the window. When you mention the most impressive place-names in the world, the typical 21st century traveler always says “I’ve been there.”—meaning“I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.”When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you skip all experience. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his cars and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.67. Anthropologists name man nowadays “Legless Man” bec ause _______.A．people prefer cars, buses and trains B．people travel without using legsC．lifts prevent people from walking D．people use their legs less and less68. According to the passage, what might make people lose the right of using their eyes?A．The modem means of transportation. B．A bird’s-eye view of the world.C．The unclear sight from the vehicles. D．The fast-paced life style.69. From the passage, we know traveling at high speeds means _______.A．appreciating beautiful scenery B．experiencing life skillsC．focusing on the next destination D．feeling physical tiredness70. What does the author intend to tell us?A．Modem transportation devices have replaced legs.B．Traveling makes the world a small place.C．Human’s history develops very fast.D．The best way to travel is on foot.第⼆节（共5⼩题:每⼩题2分，共10分）根据短⽂内容，从短⽂后的七个选项中选出恩给你填⼊空⽩处的最佳选项。

ACrazy-Creative Traditions in SchoolsHere are a few schools’ crazycreative traditions that will probably have you wish to go there so you could celebrate in all the graduation fun. Learn about them all in the below.Attire(服装) and Flowers at College of CharlestonYou fashionista will love this one. During the December ceremony, women wear black dresses and men wear black tuxedos(无尾礼服). During the May ceremony, women wear white dresses and men wear summer tuxedos. It’s also been a tradition since the 1930s to carry flowers onto the stage：women carry bouquets of six red roses in a red bow and men wear a single red rose boutonniere(胸花). So classy!Hoop Rolling at Wellesley CollegeThis allwomen’s college tradition was originally held on May Day, but it’s now held in April. The purpose was to allow students to essentially leave all their worries behind and just participate in some fun games outdoors. Back in the day, it was said that the winner of the hoop rolling race was the first to be married, and in the 1980s she would be the first to be a CEO. Nowadays, the winner would be the first to achieve her own happiness...that is, after being thrown into Lake Waban by all her classmates.Fabric and Green Grad Recycling Program at the University of New HampshireYou’ll absolutely love this tradition. UNH’s vendor provides wrinkleresistant caps and gowns made of recycled plastic bottles. Graduates then have the opportunity to donate their gowns to be cleaned and reused. Graduates are still able to keep their caps and tassels as keepsakes, all while helping to save the environment.1．If you want to participate in the December ceremony, you can choose ________．A．College of CharlestonB．Wellesley CollegeC．University of New HampshireD．Oxford University2．Hoop Rolling at Wellesley College is aimed at enabling the students to ________．A．be a CEO B．have funC．achieve happiness D．be married3．What are UNH’s caps and gowns made of?A．Flowers. B．Silk and cotton.C．Leather. D．Recycled plastic bottles.BWhen I was three years old, I couldn’t speak. It was a strange reality that none of the doctors I visited could understand.One day, I was shadowing(尾随) my mother. She found herself looking in a mirror, and through it our eyes met. She began to speak to me through the reflection, and I slowly began to mimic(模仿) her mouth’s mo vements until I formed a word.It turned out that I’m deaf in my left ear, and have a slight problem in my right. Being hard of hearing has been difficult, but I’ve never lived in a state of selfhating sorrow. Imagine being able to shut out all sound as you lay your head down to sleep by simply rolling over onto one side. That’is my reality when I sleep on my good ear，and it makes me feel like a superhero sometimes.People call my deaf side my “bad ear”，but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features that some other deaf people don’t. In cinemas, for example, with one click of a button I can enjoy a whole film as though it we re whispered to me from the mouths of the actors.Owning a hearing aid hasn’t always felt good, however. On the first d ay I got my aid, when I was eight, I took it to school for show and tell. As I explained how it worked to my classmates, a boy yelled out, “Aren’t those for old men？” At that moment, I felt different. It took a long time for me to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers.But it’s not just schoolkids who can make us deaf and hardofhearing people feel like burdens. Every video on social media that lacks subtitles(字幕), for example, means an entire community of deaf people is unable to enjoy it. Completely deaf people are excluded from enjoying many movies too, as subtitles in cinemas are almost impossible to find.And with hearing aids costing around $2, 500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to things that others take for granted. As for me, I can listen to music, enjoy films, and catch conversations I’m lucky. I’m deaf, but I can still hear everything. I’ve been blessed with wonderful life experiences, and I am human. And when it comes to sleeping, I’m even superhuman.4．How does the author view his hearing difficulty?A．It’s a disaster and causes him a lot of trouble.B．It gave him a chance to experience something special.C．It made him feel embarrassed in front of his classmates.D．It helped him to live in his own world without being interrupted.5．What can be inferred from the passage about the author?A．He was born deaf.B．He is optimistic and helpful.C．His family and classmates have supported him a lot.D．The hearing aid brings much convenience to his daily life.6．What is the author’s attitude toward his life?A．Grateful. B．Anxious.C．Excited. D．Disappointed.7．What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?A．To give advice on life to disabled people.B．To show how difficult life is for disabled people.C．To share his experience of treating a disadvantage with gratitude.D．To show the convenience a hearing aid could bring.CIt is generally acknowledged that young people from poorer socioeconomic backgrounds tend to do less well in the education system. In an attempt to help the children of poor families, a nationwide program called Head Start was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children into preschool institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results have been disappointing, because the program began too late. Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. At the end of each day, “Head Start” children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.To improve the results, a nother program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the child’s first teachers. This program was based on researc h showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The four-year study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and represented different socioeconomic statuses, ages andfamily structures. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.At three, the children involved in the Missouri program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socioeconomic backgrounds and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers. They performed equally well regardless of socioeconomic backgrounds or family structures. The one factor that was found to affect the child’s development was the poor quality of parentchild interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.The Missouri program compares quite distinctly with the Head Start program. Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.8．What caused the failure of the “Head Start” program?A．The large number of poor families.B．The disapproval from children.C．The late start of the program.D．The long period of time.9．What do we know about the “Missouri” program?A．It focused on the children’s first school teachers.B．It helped the children return to the same home.C．It made the children improved in many aspects.D．It gave the parents advice on their development.10．According to the passage, what is likely to influence children’s performance?A．The number of family members.B．The parent-child communication.C．The intelligence of their parents.D．The teacher-student relationship.11．How does the author develop the passage?A．By listing figures.B．By making comparisons.C．By presenting ideas.D．By drawing conclusions.DIn the story of the Crow and the Pitcher from Aesop’s Fables, a thirsty crow drops stones into a narrow jar to raise the low level of water inside so he can take a drink.Now scientists have evidence to back up that story. Crows actually do understand how to make water displacement(排水量) work to their advantage, experiments show. The results suggest that the birds are, at least in some aspects, as smart as first-graders.Researchers, led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Cambridge, presented six crows with tubes containing water. Inside the tubes, a worm or a piece of meat on a piece of wood was floating, just out of reach of the crow. In front of the tubes, the researchers arranged several rubber erasers that would sink, and some plastic objects that would float. The crows found out that they could drop the erasers into the tubes in order to raise the water level and get their snack.However, the birds handled awkwardly in experiments in which they could choose to drop objects in either a wide tube or a narrow one to get a snack, the researchers said. Dropping objects into a narrow tube would lift the water level by a greater amount and put the treat within reach after just two drops; while it took around seven drops to raise t he snack to the same level in the wide tube. The crows obviously didn’t real ize this, and most of them went for the wide tube first.Previous studies showed that chimps and human children can solve similar tasks. In a 2011 study, chimps and kids found out that they could put water into a tube to reach a peanut that was floating in a small amount of water at the bottom.12．How did the crows get the snack in Sarah’s experiment?A．By breaking the tube.B．By dropping in erasers.C．By standing on the wood.D．By removing the wood.13．What does the underlined part “the birds handled awkwardl y” mean in Paragraph 4?A．They were unable to tell different shapes.B．They dropped objects only into narrow tubes.C．They were not aware of the snack at first sight.D．They mostly avoided the easier way to get the snack.14．What does the text mainly focus on?A．Stories of Aesop’s Fables.B．The development of crows.C．Crows’ intelligence.D．Human-animal communication.15．What do we know about crows in the passage?A．Crows are almost as clever as first-graders in some aspects.B．Crows understand water displacement completely.C．Chimps and children are much smarter than crows.D．The story of the Crow and the Pitcher lacks evidence.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Our parents were both gone now；I took with me as many things they had left behind as I could.I was out walking one Saturday later that summer when something caught my eye - a pale green dress. Laid out on the pavement was stuff like earrings, glass candle-holders, books. Hanging on the fence behind were a few pairs of jeans and a green cotton dress.The woma n, the host o£ the stoop (门廊）sale, looked like she was getting rid of a past she didn’t need or want. A dress that was too big for her. A chest of drawers that took up too much space, space she needed, maybe, to heal ，recover, or grow.I wasn’t planning on buying anything really, but now I needed to show her that I appreciated her things and I would give them a safe home. Then I had my first stoop sale —I paid her 20 dollars for her green cotton dress and her blue candle-holder,From that day on, I became interested in stoop sales. Some of my favorite things are from someone else’s life. I find no joyin shopping at regular stores any more. I love trying to sniff out a memory from a bud vase or a drawer. It is comforting to know that someone has breathed and laughed inside a sweater before me.A few weeks ago, I carried my mother’s dresses to a friend’s stoop. These were her best items ，which were once worn by the most important person in my life. For many hours, I watched from across the path people advancing the stoop, some leaving with Mom1S dress. I used to think that her stuff was as forever sacred (神圣的）as my memory of her, I know now that once I love a scarf or shirt too dearly，it needs to finda new home. Even that green dress is long gone by now.31. T he author took her mother*s dresses after her death because ______A. she valued the things used by her momB. she didn’t want to throw them, awayC. she could sell them laterD. they were her mom’s best items32. F rom the passage, we know that ______.A. the things the author bought from the woman are too bigB. the author is fond of imagining others’ life experiencesC. the author will never shop at regular stores any moreD. t he author still keeps most of her mom’s things33. I n the last paragraph ，the author tries to tell us that ______.A her mom is the number one person in her lifeB. she didn’t really want to sell her mom’s dressesC. she still thinks of her mother quite oftenD. love doesn’t mean holding on to somethin g tightly34. I t can be inferred that the author will ______.A. not sell her own things at stoop salesB. keep her mom in her mind in another wayC. be sad about all the memory of her momD. move to another city for a new lifeBA father in Wuhan, nicknamed "Eagle Dad" for his controversial parenting style, has dismissed critics' claims that he pushes his 4-year-old son too hard.Police officer Wang Shaoyan came under the spotlight this month after his child took part in an 18-kilometer race in the Hubei provincial capital.Some parents attacked his methods of extreme physical training, while others reacted strongly to his admission that he regularly exposes the youngster to cold showers. "I just want my son to reach his full potential," Wang said, adding that。

If you want to learn why everything is usually cheaper, and what items are the best deals at your local or chain dollar or discount store, store employees have a lot of useful information. They tend to know what shoppers want — even before shoppers know themselves.Everyone buys unnecessary thingsWhether you shop at a chain dollar store such as Dollar Tree, Family Dollar or your local 99 cents store, not everything that’s on sale is necessarily worth purchasing. Bryan Waring, a former Dollar Tree employ ee, says that you’re not alone in buying more than necessary from these stores. “It seems basic, but everyone falls for this trap,” he says. “You go into a store where everything is cheap, and you walk out with things you don't need.” He suggests going into a store — yes, even the dollar store — with a checklist of things you truly need.Everything is cheaper after the holiday seasonPatricia, a seasonal worker at a Dollar Tree, says that the post-Christmas season means even more deals on everything from de corations to sweets. “After Christmas, all the gift wrap paper went to 50 cents, and all Christmas items were half price,” she says. “Even candy bars are 89 cents versus $ 1.”Products are less expensive because of their sizeIn order for dollar stores to keep their prices low, product sizes are usually smaller than normal, according to Cheapism. Dollar stores area t the only ones guilty of this trick. Cheapism also reports Walmart is guilty of doing the same thing to attract customers.1．What is Bryan’s ad vice against buying unnecessary things?A．Making a purchase alone.B．Writing a to-buy list ahead.C．Shopping at your local store.D．Buying basic things separately.2．Which of the following is a better time for shopping according to Patricia?A．In the Christmas sales.B．At a particular discount.C．After the Christmas season.D．During some holiday seasons.3．How do stores make their products cheaper?A．By reducing product sizes.B．By lowering product costs.C．By adopting discount strategies.D．By attracting more customers.【解析】这是一篇说明文。

It stuck out a few inches above the ground and was 11 inches in width-slightly wider than a basketball-with a hatch(盖子) that had been moved unnoticed. The two-year-old boy had slipped in and was drowning in four feet of waste water inside the eight-feet-deep tank.Madison surveyed the situation. She was the only one who could fit through the small hole. Without hesitation, she told the adults, “Lower me in. Inside, the tank was dark, and the air was smelly. In the process, she jammed her left wrist against a hidden pole, injuring the muscles in her wrist so severely that the hand was left useless.Rather than tending to her injury, Madison tried to feel the underwater boy. Minutes went by before she saw the outline of his foot. Madison shot her good hand out and grasped the foot tightly “Pull me up!” she shouted. Then, ten minutes after Madison had entered the tank, she and the boy were lifted out.But the boy wasn’t out of trouble. He had lacked Oxygen long enough that he wasn’t breathing. He was placed on his side, and an adult hit him hard on the back. It was only when Madison heard him cry that she knew he was all right. It took Madison longer to recover than the boy, who was taken to hospital and left hospital that same night.

Henry, born in Greensboro, North Carolina, was the pen name of William Sydney Porter. His father, Algernon Sydney Porter, was a physician. When William was three years old, his mother died, and he was raised by his grandmother and aunt. William was a good reader, but at the age of fifteen he left school, and worked in a drug store and later on a Texas farm. After that, he moved to Houston, where he had a number of jobs, including that of bank clerk. After moving to Austin, Texas, in 1882, he married.In 1884 he started a humorous weekly The Rolling Stone. When the weekly failed, he joined The Houston Post as a reporter and columnist(专栏作家). In 1897 he was put into prison over some financial(财务的) dealings. While in prison, William started to write short stories to earn money to support his daughter Margaret. His first work, Whistling Dick’s Christmas Stocking(1899), appeared in McClure’s Magazine. After serving three years of the five years’ sentence, he changed his name to O. Henry, hoping to forget his bitter past.O. Henry moved to New York City in 1902 and from December 1903 to January 1906 he wrote a story a week for the New York World, and also published the stories in other magazines. His first collection, Cabbages and Kings, appeared in 1904. Many other works quickly followed, such as The Gift of the Magi and The Furnished Room. O. Henry’s best-known work is The Ransom of Red Chief. His stories always have surprising endings. He published 10 collections and over 600 short stories during his lifetime.O.

Since that ground-breaking moment, more than four million babies have been born through IVF(体外受精) and in 2010 his great contribution to science was finally recognized as he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine.The prize for Dr. Edwards, who was given a Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Award in 2008, includes a ￡900,000 cheque. The Nobel Assembly described IVF as “a milestone in modern medicine”.With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, the Manchester—born physiologist developed IVF—leading to the birth of the world’s first test tube baby. Dr. Steptoe died 10 years later but their work has transformed fertility(生育) treatment and given hope to millions of couples.It was a scientific breakthrough that cha nged the lives of millions of couples. They said, “His achievements have made it possible to treat infertility, a disease which makes humans unable to have a baby. This condition has been afflicting a large percentage of mankind, including more than 10% of all couples worldwide.”Professor Edwards, who has 5 daughters and 11 grandchildren, began his research at Cambridge University in 1963, after receiving his PhD in 1955. He once said, “The most imp ortant thing in life is having a child. Nothing is more special than a child.” With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, Prof. Edwards founded the Bourn Hall clinic in Cambridgeshire, which now treats more than 900 women a year. Each year, more than 30,000 women in Britain now undergo IVF and 11,000 babies are born as a result of the treatment.But his work attracted widespread criticism from some scientists and the Catholic Church who said it was “unethical and immoral”.Martin Johnson, professor of reproductive(生殖的) sciences at the University of Cambridge, said the award was “long overdue”. He said, “We couldn’t understand why the Nobel has come so late but he is delighted—this is the cherry on the cake for him.”Professo r Edwards was too ill to give interviews but a statement released by his family said he was “thrilled and delighted”.32. What is Robert Edwards' contribution to science?A. Challenging a disease which stops couples having a baby.B. Seeing the wonder of the first tube baby growing.C. Enabling millions of couples to live a better life.D. Helping couples with infertility to have test tube babies.33. What does the underlined word “afflicting” in Paragraph 4 most probably refer to?A. Troubling.B. Developing.C. Improving.D. Frightening.34. It can be inferred from Paragraph 6 and Paragraph 7 that ________.A. some people envied Professor Edwards for his being awardedB. different opinions were voiced on Professor Edwards' workC. Professor Edwards deserved the prize for his breakthroughD. the prize was late because the finding was first considered immoral35. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Life Stories of Robert EdwardsB. Preparations for Having a BabyC. Nobel Prize for IVF Expert EdwardsD. Treatment of Infertility in a Lab第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
